I thank the gentleman from Connecticut. I want to say to both parties, he is exactly right. I have Camp Lejeune Marine Base in my district. The last 4 years I've met two different times with Marine husbands and wives and their children with autism. It is a serious problem. And as Mr. Larson has said, this was fixed, but somewhere along the way the communication breaks down, like it does too often here in Washington. {time} 1240 As Mr. Larson said, let's try to fix this problem today. Let's get it in the base bill. Let's send it over to the Senate on behalf of all of our men and women in uniform and the families who have children with autism. Please, God, let us fix this for those families.
